About
I’m a Norwegian Curator, Art Advisor, and Artist with an interdisciplinary background in fine art, communication, and design. As an Art Advisor at International Corporate Art (ICArt), I have curated large-scale art collections for luxury hospitality and corporate environments, collaborating with international artists, commissioning original works, and developing carefully considered art programs.
My background in communication and design has strengthened my ability to develop compelling visual identities and communicate ideas through thoughtful design. I enjoy working across disciplines and bringing together art, people, spaces, and ideas to create meaningful experiences.
Alongside my curatorial practice, I create expressive paintings, refined illustrations, and detailed portraits in pencil and watercolor. Inspired by Expressionism, Pop Art, and contemporary fashion illustration, my work combines bold artistic expression with delicate craftsmanship, exploring the intersection between abstraction and realism.
